2025

[Grant] Great News! Dr. Qin as PI has received nearly one million Euro funding from NWO for his project on BATT-AI. The project aims to empower battery energy storage systems with AI for better grid services both technically and economically. Check it out

[Education] Great News! The newly developed online course Battery Management Systems (BMS) and Pack Design led by Dr. Qin is launching in April. Sign it up now

[Tutorial] Dr. Qin and our former PhD Dr. Lu Wang will give a tutorial in EPE 2025, Paris, on the topic of EV Charging. Have fun!

[Publication] Recently, we researched on how to reduce the grid fee of EV charging stations by integrating energy storage into it. We have quantified the results with a Dutch case. The work is published on eTransportation. Check it out Techno-economic analysis of energy storage systems integrated with ultra-fast charging stations: A dutch case study
